You could try Fenris Games and their laser cutting.

I recommend debris games too. Top bloke!

Depending the design, we might be able to do it for you. The maximum size for our laser cutting bed is 600x300, so it would be cutting it close. Pop us an email if you like through the website: minibits.net

Assuming those measurements are in mm, that's nowhere near big enough. 36 inches ~= 900mm

Haha, it does indeed! I had 3ft in my head for some reason…

Most of the UK companies have similar size lasers to us, so it could be hard cutting it in one piece.

At least I'm not the only one thinking… Need a bigger laser :)

I only get 400 by 300. Well full 16" by 12" but I had to do some special modifications for that. I need to experiment with maxing out the machine and see how much more I can squeeze out of it.

Does the deck *have* to be one piece?

Our (East Riding Miniatures) laser cutter has a 900x600 bed so 3' would work on the diagonal.
